Location: Outside Dante Port
In the curtain of rain, a group of teachers is leading students through the downpour.
There are still many Land Giant Claw Crabs active in the fallen territory.
But this team discarded their supplies and equipnt like madn, just to cross the fallen territory swiftly and move towards the area surrounding nilanka.
This was a unanimous decision made by both the teacher group and the students.
All for the quick rescue of Morton and Chloe.
Those valuable supplies that people outside would fight over were abandoned in the hotel.
Not even bothering to inform the hotel staff, they continued their journey through the storm.
Chloe's artificial stone bridges guided their direction.
Even a creature like Heisha was secretly amazed upon seeing such man-made bridges.
"Ask the students if they can speed up further."
Heisha said.
No wonder she was worried.
No one knows Chloe's current power better than she does.
Under regular conditions, he could not possibly summon such wide-ranging Earth Power.
A "earth dragon" spanning dozens of kiloters is beyond what he can summon at this stage.
Even a Sequence Five legend would find it daunting.
Not to ntion, this expressway was rely leftover power after Chloe's exertion.
Thus, she quickly deduced that the boy Chloe was burning his life, unleashing his powers to the extre.
Even with Blood Rebirth, he must have lost a life by now.
Heisha wished to speed up.
But she feared the students couldn't keep pace.
Along the way, Land Giant Claw Crabs have started appearing one after another.
With teachers engaging, the students inevitably had to face demons head-on.
Because the demons here were indeed quite dense.
"Heisha, the students say they can further speed up."
Replied a teacher.
"Let them drink the Life Stabilizing Potion. This ti, let the students have a trendous fight."
Heisha pulled out a dicine box from the space backpack for the teachers to quickly distribute.
The Life Stabilizing Potion, a special Magic Potion made by Heisha.
It enhances combat strength for a short period at the cost of worsened recovery later on.
Consider it an advanced low-side-effects version of adrenaline.
Without a word, the students fastened their pace after taking the potion.
Not to ntion the older students from junior and senior years.
They have experienced real battles.
Now it was just about fighting more fiercely.
The Ether Emblem is a teaching institution, but the student's developnt path mainly leans towards combat-related mysterious associations.
In essence, they were candidate soldiers.
Just, relatively speaking, more free.
But now, the students personally experienced what was called a real battlefield.
In fact, earlier a teacher suggested letting students stay at Dante Port while they rushed to rescue faster.
But Heisha quickly vetoed the proposal.
"Our current teacher composition specializes in defense and counterattack. Using this setup to deal with the fallen territory, we not only fail to rescue but also might be a burden."
"Take the students along; although their sequence numbers are low, sotis their awakened talents can be more useful than re strength."
As it turned out.
Heisha's judgnt of the situation was accurate.
The fallen territory was more perilous than she anticipated.
Or rather, the developnt of the Land Giant Claw Crabs these years had been too good.
Even for teachers of the Ether Emblem, it was easy to exhaust stamina and extraordinary power under such circumstances.
But so students were indeed different.
For example, the chubby kid from the healing specialization.
His talent of "Combat Continuation" was quite unique, able to be applied to others.
In normal situations, this talent would be greatly advantageous, considering that boy nad Daniel couldn't afford to apply Combat Continuation to everyone.
Without being group-focused, its effectiveness was limited when the individual faced group assaults.
But, what if soone in the student group had the talent "Mass Production"?
This talent's effect was to continually increase magical effects or special states.
The student nad Caesar usually utilized this talent for "mass production" magic, fully capitalizing on the purpose of a Magic Cannon.
But this ti, he applied his "Mass Production" talent to Daniel's "Combat Continuation."
Though for the sake of bestowing the state upon the team, he was heavily injured, yet it indeed empowered the entire team with "Combat Continuation."
Also, Rephya, for instance, the divine power released from her Holy Bone continuously reinforced the entire team.
Situations like this were nurous.
As a result, instead of being a burden, the teacher group found their overall combat state significantly elevated thanks to the student's talents.
Initially thought to be taking along a hindrance.
But who would have thought that these students would turn into supports?
Unfortunately, their speed remained restricted.
After all, it seed like the Land Giant Claw Crabs were aware of their intent.
Now, they were charging wave upon wave onto Chloe's stone bridge to battle with them.
But that's as far as it went.
Although so were heavily injured, as long as they stepped into nilanka, with a foothold, they quickly began healing their wounds.
Amidst the mist.
They heard the roar of Thunderbolt.
And via...
The small mountain sprawled before the city wall.
Everyone's breath caught.
The pressure from the remnants of the Legendary Demon had yet to dissipate.
The rain couldn't wash away the thick smoke cloaking it.
It was as if it had been charred from within.
"Was this done by Senior Chloe?"
"That's Filthy Thunder, I've seen it before, but I didn't expect the president's Filthy Thunder to be so fierce."
"But... this is a Legendary Demon."
"...Then what can I say other than yelling the president is aweso!"
Heisha glanced at the Disaster Beast.
She could indeed handle the Disaster Beast.
But the thod of forcefully killing it with Filthy Thunder was quite rare.
Huh.
That's not right.
It seems it wasn't just Filthy Thunder.
But now none of that matters.
The thunderous sound from that boy Chloe has weakened significantly.
It seems they arrived just in ti.
However, after stepping through the collapsed city wall into Neil Town and then quickly organizing the students to spread out against the demons...
They saw the scene of a girl with her injured mother keeping guard by Morton, in a vacuum zone held open by an invisible force.
So students couldn't help but turn their heads away.
They had already realized sothing.
Many from the Fantasy Association, old students who were once cared for by Morton, had arrived.
The Extre Association, of which Morton was now a nominal mber, had also seen Morton interact frequently with its students recently.
Everyone quite liked this humorous and witty senior.
And now, returning to his longed-for hotown, he had fallen on this very land.
The returnee fell at the doorstep of his ho.
It was too cruel.
Emotionally sensitive girls felt their noses grow sore.
A teacher stepped forward, intending to pick Morton up.
But the little girl blocked his way, not letting him pass.
"He is our student, please leave him to us."
The girl hesitated a bit.
Until she saw the emblem on the man's body, the sa as Morton's, and reluctantly nodded.
The teacher picked Morton up.
Suddenly rembering sothing, he whispered:
"Was my student brave on the battlefield?"
Eira tilted her head thoughtfully and said:
"When I saw him, he was still charging."
"That's good, that's good."
Holding Morton was a Legendary Hidden Stab.
Also Morton's graduate ntor.
Actually, many in the teachers' group knew that for this trip, there were quite a few protecting Director Kennis.
There were several Legends.
It was truly unusual.
Why go beyond the norm was officially explained as "protecting a top healer."
But in reality, the reason so ca over was a matter known to all.
However, Morton did not seek out his teacher this ti.
Heisha patted that teacher's shoulder and said:
"He probably didn't want to trouble you any further."
The Legendary Shadow Stab said softly: "I know, he has always been my prideful student."
He held Morton and placed him under a rain-sheltered house, his eyes burning with greater killing intent.
"Students, today we lost an excellent companion. What do you say we should do?"
"Kill!"
"Right, only killing." The teacher said with deadly resolve, "But as to how to kill, I don't need to teach you, right?"
The Ethereal Emblem never speaks of fairness.
When facing the Evil God's Followers, they never mind besieging them.
One-on-one?
Are you kidding?
They only want the heads of the Evil God's Followers.
With the addition of active forces, the area around the nilanka District walls finally stabilized.
The battle lasted a full day and night.
The stalemate was broken by the adventurers who ca killing from Dante Port.
Indeed.
Upon learning of the issues on the nilanka District side.
The commander-in-chief responsible for this clearance operation decisively let the adventurers advance early.
The vast adventurers also discovered the great road directly leading to the nilanka District.
Thus, the Earth and Wood Mage directly consolidated a main road based on that path.
The demon dispersing array was inscribed along the way, beginning battles based on the direct route.
By the ti the second sun rose, they finally fought their way back in.
The Mage Association brought the highest quality signal equipnt.
The chanical Association began assisting in the restoration of basic power facilities locally.
All professionals from various fields began their work.
However, so instinctively turned their gaze to the Disaster Beast.
The corpse of that colossal creature had now beco cold, and the Ethereal Emblem had begun to dismantle it.
The Adventurer's Guild sent people over to inquire, asking if the Ethereal Emblem was selling materials.
However, the teachers of the Ethereal Emblem gave a surprising reply:
"That is a demon hunted independently by a student, if you want to buy materials, go directly to him."
"Student? Independent hunt? Legendary demon?"
The people from the Adventurer's Guild were montarily stunned and emphasized it again.
Yet they received an affirmative answer from the teachers of the Ethereal Emblem.
"A doctoral student?" The staff mber confird once more.
"No, a sophomore."
"A sophomore, hunting a legendary demon?"
"Yes, a sophomore hunted a legendary demon, but he was also severely injured, so don't disturb him too much."
The staff mber could only feel as if seeing a ghost.
Could these terms even be connected?
So, what is our protagonist doing?
Chloe was frowning, looking at the emblem the little girl Eira handed him, saying:
"Who gave this to you?"
